Chapter 22 There is an inside line of intelligence
The convoy in the distance of the woods was none other than Yue Li, the head of the military commander's Hujiazhuang station. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The convoy consisted of two Soviet-aided Gass trucks, one loaded with cartons of Cuban cigars, Soviet vodka, and American Coca-Cola, and one was crowded with platoons of armed soldiers, all wearing steel helmets and armed with submachine guns.
Behind the convoy were thirty horses, commanded by thirty sturdy military commanders in black hats and with short guns.
Yue Li sat in the passenger seat of the first car, and next to her was a young man in his twenties, with a resolute face, eyes and temples slightly bulging, and he knew at a glance that he was a martial arts master.
"Stationmaster Yue, is Long Xiaotian really that powerful?" The young driver asked, his face full of doubt.
"Huo Ying, you've asked me this question five times. Hurry up and drive and see what happened to the shells? β
"Hmph. I don't believe that there are people in China who are stronger than our Baji boxers? Huo Ying replied, looking confident.
"Do you think that your master ancestor is the sharpshooter Li Shuwen, so you can be the strongest? The strength of one of your fists is not as strong as Long Xiaotian's small finger! Yue Li lectured disdainfully, remembering in her mind that when she first arrived in Hujiazhuang, she watched the plot of Long Xiaotian and Yue Chong's martial arts competition, and there was also a trace of emotional fluctuations, and she had a crush on Long Xiaotian for a long time.
Li Shuwen (1862~1934), a native of Cangzhou, Hebei Province, was a bright and upright person all his life, and he was as evil as hatred. He is the most reliable foreign master in the history of Chinese martial arts.
According to real historical records, Li Shuwen has never lost a martial arts competition in his life, and he can still compete in the year of the sixtieth year. His eldest disciple Huo Diange served as a martial arts teacher and guard officer of the last emperor Puyi, and the last disciple Liu Yunqiao served in the Kuomintang government garrison as an instructor and guard of Chiang Kai-shek's guards. And Li Jianwu, who was with Liu Yunqiao at the same time as Li Shuwen Bajiquan, served as Lao Mao's guard.
Huo Ying, as Huo Diange's distant nephew, has practiced the mighty Bajiquan since he was a child, and he has worked hard among the younger generation, so he is confident and arrogant. After he joined the military command, he was favored by Yue Li by relying on his excellent kung fu and joined Hujiazhuang Station.
"Since Long Xiaotian is so powerful, why do you want to send him an extra platoon of guards this time?" Huo Ying asked.
"Hehe, you don't understand this. Long Xiaotian is a person with extremely high ability and special functions, so he naturally does not need protection. However, he was particularly arrogant, and this platoon was specially assigned to him by Commander Li to serve as a faΓ§ade for him. Yue Li explained with a smile.
Huo Ying pursed his lips and said, "Those things that are delicious and delicious are also window dressing?" The country is so poor, and it still needs to give him so many high-end gadgets? This ...... surnamed Dragon"
"If you have one-tenth of his ability, I will apply to Director Dai for a copy of it!" Yue Li said angrily, glaring at Huo Ying fiercely, "If you dare to question Major General Long again, I will send you to the military court for punishment." How many secrets do you kid know?! β
Yue Li was really anxious this time. She came to find Long Xiaotian, in addition to sending food and drink, she also shouldered the secret orders of Li Zongren and Chiang Kai-shek, urging Long Xiaotian to immediately reconnoiter the enemy.
Huo Ying closed his mouth and accelerated to drive. The car soon reached the place where the shells fell.
Yue Li eagerly pulled the car door and jumped down. The other agents also hula got out of the car and dismounted to observe, and some were on alert to the outside world.
The crater is two meters deep and five or six meters in diameter, and the shrapnel is scattered.
Yue Li picked up a piece and saw that it was in English, and was shocked, how could there be a British or American-made cannonball?
Huo Ying did not get out of the car, but climbed to the roof of the car to look.
Yue Li yelled at Huo Ying: "What are you kid climbing up to see on it? β
"Stationmaster Yue, there are plains all around, you can't see any artillery positions, there is a forest in front of the left, it's better to go over and take a look."
Yue Li nodded and ordered: "Huo Ying, you ride over to reconnoitre, and the others scatter the battle formation and follow forward, ready for battle!" β
Everyone agreed.
Huo Ying asked for a horse, drew his shell gun, and galloped towards the woods.
Approaching the woods, Huo Ying pushed the bullet up, carefully rode the horse, and probed his brain. Seeing that there was no abnormality, he entered the woods, Huo Ran saw a cannon and a bunch of shell boxes, a white horse next to him, and immediately raised his gun to look around. For a full minute, there was no movement.
Huo Ying had the courage to approach the cannon, and he also pounded the cannon with his hand, making a buzzing sound.
"It's strange, how come there is no one for such a new cannon?" He muttered to himself.
Not at ease, he reconnoitred in the woods again, but there was no one. Huo Ying excitedly rushed out of the forest and shouted, "Come here, Stationmaster Yue, there is a cannon inside, brand new." Come here! β
Yue Li led people over in a hurry, and they were very surprised at first glance. Yue Li was particularly shocked, how could there be American-made howitzers here.
"Whether there is an owner or not, we now find the 60th Army with a truck towing artillery and give it to them. The Dian army is in need of artillery. Yue Li ordered decisively.
Everyone tied the cannon with ropes, connected it to the truck, and was about to drive, when suddenly a voice sounded from the woods: "Well, who dares to steal my cannon?" β
When Yue Li heard this voice, she was very moved, and she looked at the sound, and sure enough, she saw Long Xiaotian sitting on a tree branch seven or eight meters high and looking down with a smile.
Yue Li immediately stood up straight and saluted, and said loudly: "Report, Yue Li has seen Major General Long!" β
The other guards and agents saluted when they saw Yue Li like this.
Long Xiaotian laughed, jumped down, and jumped down easily. Everyone was surprised, Huo Ying's mouth was open enough to stuff a big goose egg, could it be that Long Xiaotian really had great ability? He is a martial arts person, and he knows that it is not easy to jump from such a high place.
Yue Li glanced at Huo Ying proudly, don't you believe Long Xiaotian? Look at people jumping from such a high place unscathed. She looked at Long Xiaotian carefully, her eyes fixed on the big blue diamond ring, and her mouth opened in surprise.
"Yue Li, you came just in time. Give this cannon of mine to LujΓ‘n. Long Xiaotian said with a smile, pointed at the cannon with his left hand, and deliberately shook the diamond ring, the bright light was really eye-catching.
Yue Li easily took her eyes off the diamond ring, looked at the cannon, and said, "Major General Long, I wonder very much, this cannon and cannonball have the name of the American manufacturer written on it, and it is a brand new cannon, how could it end up in your hands?" β
"Oh, this is what Chairman Chiang asked me to give to the 60th Army." Long Xiaotian replied nonchalantly.
"This, but ......" Yue Li stood up and looked around, there were no ruts in the cannon truck.
"Oh, I'll wipe off all the ruts in the transport, I'm afraid the devil will know." Long Xiaotian explained.
"But. The United States pursues a policy of neutrality and prohibits the delivery of weapons to China, especially such advanced heavy weapons. Yue Li said suspiciously.
"This cannon was given to Chairman Chiang by the Americans, and this kind of cannon has not yet been put into actual combat. The purpose of the Americans is to verify the performance of the cannon, and they will send it later. Long Xiaotian replied in a hurry, and without waiting for Yue Li's reaction, he immediately said:
"Regarding this news, you ordered the Hujiazhuang special team to spread the news covertly, and you must let the Japanese high-level know about this matter."
Yue Li was stunned, this kind of news is absolutely confidential and must not be spread, how can it be spread, and it must be spread covertly?
"The news should spread, and when it spreads, it should be pretended to be accidentally revealed, so that it will appear true. Remember, this is my command, and you should do it. If Director Dai asks questions, you will say what I said. By the way, after bringing the artillery to the 60th Army, let the artillery of the Yunnan Army take a group photo with the artillery, and pass the group photo out. β
Yue Li was full of doubts, but she still agreed, but she hesitated in her heart to report this matter to her superiors.
"Yue Li, if you ask the military commander to give me a document on the attitude of the world powers, including the Soviet Union, the United States, Germany, Britain, France, Italy, and other countries toward the war, the more detailed the better. I'm of great use. Having said this, Long Xiaotian put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, his eyes narrowed, and his face deliberately became dark, looking pretentious.
"Yes." Yue Li agreed, reaching out to cover her mouth. Seeing the fifteen-year-old Long Xiaotian show this demeanor, Yue Li couldn't help but laugh, and suddenly understood a little bit of Long Xiaotian's intention to promote American artillery in her mind.
Ahem. Huo Ying pretended to cough, with doubts and disdain on his face.
As soon as Huo Ying saw Long Xiaotian, his eyes didn't leave, and the more he looked at his face, the more puzzled he became, this person was the famous Long Xiaotian, how could he be so young, so thin, and not tall, how could he slaughter devils in Nanjing City, how could he defeat the master Yue Chong?
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Huo Ying's demeanor, and Long Xiaotian asked impatiently, "What are you kid looking at me for?" β
Yue Li hurriedly explained with a smile: "Xiaotian, this is called Huo Ying, and the ancestor is the world-famous spear Li Shuwen. He is very good at kung fu, but he thinks you are too young and a little ......" At this point, Yue Li smiled apologetically.
Long Xiaotian nodded, put his right hand behind his back, stretched out his left little finger pointing upward, and said proudly: "When I was a child, I heard of the name of the sharpshooter Li Shuwen. Your Bajiquan focuses on power attacks. However, those who doubt me are all frogs at the bottom of the well, and they have never seen the world. I'm holding out a little finger here, and you hold it with your hand and use all your strength to break it, and as long as you break it, I'll throw in the towel. β
When everyone heard this, they stared at Huo Ying together. Huo Ying suddenly changed color, didn't say a word, went up and held Long Xiaotian's little finger with his left hand, and broke it with force, but he didn't move. The crowd burst into laughter.
Huo Ying's face turned red, and no matter how hard he put on it, it still had no effect. Everyone didn't laugh this time, but stared at Long Xiaotian with a shocked face.
Huo Ying changed to his right hand, and broke his hands together, Long Xiaotian's little fingers still facing upward.
Huo Ying's forehead was sweating, and he broke it repeatedly. Long Xiaotian felt that this guy was too stubborn, his little fingers trembled, boom, and a strong force was issued, Huo Ying was thrown three meters away, and almost fell.
The crowd applauded.
Huo Ying was convinced, hugged his fists and said: "Long Daxia, Major General Long, I, Huo someone, am convinced by oral take-out and admiration." Your Excellency is worthy of being a Chinese tyrannosaurus! β
Long Xiaotian smiled proudly.
Yue Li said: "Major General Long, I still have something to report to you, please come with me." Then he departed from the crowd.
Long Xiaotian knew that it was a confidential matter, so he followed her to the tree in the distance.
"Major General Long, here's the thing. Chief Li Zongren entrusted me with apologizing to you, saying that you should not doubt your military intelligence last time. I hope you will re-inquire about the devil immediately. For this reason, a platoon of guards was sent to protect you, and 300,000 oceans were specially allocated as operational funds. Yue Li said solemnly.
"Oh, intelligence, no hurry. You save half of that money, and divide half of it among my subordinates. Long Xiaotian said lazily, looking at the row of guards with submachine guns, and sighed in his heart, it was quite majestic.
Yue Li's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly said: "Xiaotian, the military situation is a little bad now, the commander's department and even the supreme command are a little nervous, and they are eager to get the latest and most complete information about the Japanese army. We know that you have a particularly important inside line at the top of the Japanese army to provide you with high-level intelligence, and you can usually be a few days late, but it is really urgent at the moment. Besides, people can't take risks for nothing. β
Long Xiaotian got the last information, Li Zongren still had some impressions in his mind, and now he believes it a little. The reason why he was suspicious was because Long Xiaotian only took half a day to get it. However, if he had a high-level inside line in the Japanese army, this doubt would have been solved. Therefore, Li Zongren found Yue Li and entrusted her to ask Long Xiaotian to collect information here.
When Long Xiaotian heard Yue Li's words, he admired in his heart, this is a good idea, he is worried about how to explain such a strange source of information, and now he has a good excuse.
"Hmm. All right. Keep the money. As for the information, in two days, I will ask for it from the inside. The headquarters of the 60th Army was in the village behind. Take the cannon away. Note that the truck should drive slowly. β
Yue Li nodded, returned to the team, waved her hand, and the truck roared, dragging the cannon and walking slowly.
Long Xiaotian rode away, and a platoon of guards surrounded the front and back, majestic.
